Welcome to the newly refreshed and updated DiabetesMine.com. These changes have been a long time coming, and I’m very excited and hope that the new look accomplishes all its goals while still providing you that warm fuzzy feeling you love. (Ahem.)
What we were shooting for was: better use of space, nice tabs up there to highlight stuff — instead of just a stacked list of “categories,” more useful sidebar links, and most of all, an infinitely more searchable site. The individual pages should make it a heck of a lot easier to find and read all the topics that interest you the most.
You will also note the addition of a “Marketplace” tab that takes you to the sort of modified Classified Ads section I had mentioned before. This area features little ads from hand-picked providers who offer high-quality products to this community. That is to say, we’re screening them carefully, but in case you find anything there that seems inappropriate or offends, let me know asap.
Meanwhile, I’m nosing around and trying to get comfy in my new home here. Please note that things may be a little bumpy for a while, as I am not feeling all that warm and fuzzy about the new hosting platform just yet. I may have trouble posting links, or getting images where I want them to appear, so if you happen to hear a blood-curdling scream from the general direction of San Francisco in the next few weeks, rest assured it’s just my website growing pains.
Got SITE FEEDBACK? Do let me hear from you.
Congrats on the new look and feel. It’s beautiful, clean, and modern! Well done!
I think it looks pretty great! The one buggy thing I keep noticing is the pictures. Sometimes your pic is there, sometimes it’s not. I hope you get things figured out soon, and for the best!
Great job tonight on Dr. A show!!
I like the new look but I’m kind of partial to blue and yellow blogs.
Amy, the new look is fab. I like it, especially the tabs up top there very user friendly! Kudos to the designer….
The layout is broken in the latest version of FireFox for the Mac. I’m seeing two columns instead of the one that should be there, I think. Like the parts that I can see, though.
Amy ~ The new look is absolutely wonderful! Many kuddos for keeping it the same caring site and making it refreshed and clean. Love the cleaner lines, the new tabs and the drop downs. Keep up the great work!!!
Is it just me or does your RSS feed give a 404? I wondered why I haven’t seen any updated articles in a few days.
Amy,
Nice new design! Enough of the old to be familiar, but very fresh and crisp. I feel sharper just looking at it!
I can’t seem to suscribe to your RSS feed with IE v7.
For RSS, I had to “resubscribe” with what appears to be a new feed source — it’s different from the original (look to the left of the page for the buttons).
New Medicine For Diabetes…
Your blog makes very interesting reading. I’m sure others will think so too I look forward to reading their comments….
